Decision table
What changes in practice.
| Decision point | HubSpot AEO | Recometrix |
|---|---|---|
| Core workflow | Daily visibility, prompt, competitor, citation, and sentiment tracking with prioritized recommendations. | Find the exact answer or source gap, preview a grounded draft, ship the deliverable, then grade movement against the targeted prompts and a control group. |
| AI coverage | The standalone product lists ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini. | ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity are included on every paid plan. Grow and Agency add Grok plus grounded search variants. |
| Prompts and cadence | The standalone plan includes 25 prompts checked daily, with prompt add-ons available. | Track includes 25 prompts with repeated sampling on weekly audits. Grow includes 75 prompts per brand with daily pulses and deeper weekly runs. |
